Back to School at Illegal Pete’s

New semester, new classes, new routines. Whether you’re moving into the dorms for the first time or heading back for another round of campus life, one thing never changes: you need a place where you can eat well, hang out with friends, and reset between the chaos of classes. That’s where Illegal Pete’s comes in.

We’re your all-day, any-day spot for burritos, bowls, tacos, and good vibes. Whether it’s a quick lunch, a late-night bite, or a long hangout on the patio, Pete’s fits right into your week. The food is fresh, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the price is right. Basically, everything college life needs in one place.

Back to school doesn’t have to mean “back to routine.” At Pete’s, every day is a chance to make a moment worth remembering.

On Wednesdays We Lunch at Pete’s (and Every Other Day Too)

Sure, the phrase might sound familiar, but we’re putting our own spin on it. Wednesdays are a perfect excuse to gather your crew, but truthfully, any day is a good day to lunch at Pete’s.

Need a quick break between classes? Grab a burrito or bowl loaded with your favorite ingredients. Craving a midweek pick-me-up? Settle in with tacos, free chips, and a warm tortilla on the side. Want to stretch lunch into a full hangout? Pull up a chair, stay awhile, and soak in the laid-back Pete’s vibe.

When your schedule gets hectic, we’re the spot where you can refuel, unwind, and still make it to your next class.

Happy Hour Done Right Every Day

After a day of deadlines and discussion boards, you’ve earned some fun. Pete’s happy hour is the ultimate way to close the laptop, round up your friends, and kick off the evening.

Order a round of margaritas, local brews or zero-proofs, share some nachos, and let the stress melt away. Whether you’re gearing up for a night out or just want to laugh with friends on the patio, this is your space to recharge and celebrate the small wins.

Affordable food, strong drinks, and even stronger playlists make Pete’s the perfect spot to enjoy happy hour every day of the week.

Serious Study Sessions, Pete’s Style

Some days call for focus; others call for comfort food, and Pete’s delivers both. Bring your laptop, your notes, or your study group and turn your table into the ultimate productivity zone. Our lively but relaxed atmosphere makes it easy to get work done without feeling cooped up, and our food keeps your energy up through every page of that reading assignment.

Pair your study session with a burrito or bowl made just how you like it, and keep refreshed with one of our zero proof drinks or a fresh-squeezed soda. Whether it’s a quiet solo grind or a group project catch-up, Pete’s is the place where studying feels just a little more enjoyable.

Your Anytime Spot

College life doesn’t run on a set schedule, and neither do we. Whether it’s a lunch between lectures, a quick dinner after practice, or a post-study snack before heading home, Pete’s is always a good idea.

We keep things simple: fresh food, friendly faces, and an atmosphere that feels like a little piece of home away from home. It’s the kind of place that becomes part of your college rhythm, the go-to for a casual meal, a catch-up, or just a breather from everything else.

So this semester, make it a point to find your people, find your pace, and make Pete’s part of your week every week.
